A First Look At Kieron Gillen And Stephanie Hans’ ‘We Called Them Giants’ OGN
by Olly MacNamee
Image Comics has shared a first look at the original graphic novel We Called Them Giants by the bestselling creators behind the award-winning fantasy series Die, writer Kieron Gillen (The Wicked + The Divine, Immortal X-Men), artist Stephanie Hans (Secret Wars 1602: Witch Hunter Angela, Black Bolt), letterer Clayton Cowles (Adventureman) and colourist Becca Carey (Radiant Black). And here’s the premise:
“We Called Them Giants follows main character Lori, who wakes to find the streets empty. Everyone has gone. Or at least, nearly everyone. She’s thrown into a world where she has to scrape by in the ruins of civilization, nearly starving, hiding from gangs when… They arrive.
We Called Them Giants promises readers the poignant and devastating story of a young girl who wakes up to find her world has turned upside down. Perhaps best described as The Last of Us meets The Iron Giant and perfect for fans of Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen’s Descender and Marjorie Liu and Sana Takeda’s Monstress.”
We Called Them Giants hardcover graphic novel will be out in comic book stores on Wednesday, October 30 and in book stores on Tuesday, November 12th from Image Comics.
